Inspecting the pump model GV-100 before
PREPARATION measurement (air leak check)
(1) Confirm that the inlet clamping nut is firmly tightened.
(2) After confirming that the pump handle is fully in

(therefore, the guide line on the pump shaft is not
seen),insert a fresh unbroken detector tube into the
rubber inlet of the pump.
(3) Align the guide mark (red line) on the back plate and the
guide mark (▲100) on the handle.
(4) Pull out the handle fully along the red guide line on the
pump shaft to the lock position, and wait 1 minute.
(5) Unlock the handle by turning it more than 1/4 turns and
guide it back gradually.
(6) Confirm the handle returns to the initial position and the
guide line on the pump shaft is not seen.
NOTE
When the handle is unlocked, be sure to
guide it back gradually by applying a little NOTE
resistance. Otherwise, the handle will spring The above air leak check feature in accordance
back due to the vacuum in the pump cylinder with EN1231,4.2.

Simple and accurate measurements
OPERATION with the Gastec standard detector tube system
a) Insert the detector tube end straight into the tube tip breaker of
the Pump.
b) Rotate the detector tube so that the diamond cutter of the tube
tip breaker scratches the surface of the tube end.
c) Hold the detector tube firmly near the tube tip breaker and bend
the tube toward you to break the tube tip.
d) Confirm the pump handle is fully pushed in (therefore, the guide

line on the pump shaft is not seen). Then insert the detector tube
▲
into the rubber inlet of the Pump with the arrow ( ) on the tube
pointing toward the pump.
e) Align the guide mark (red line) on the back plate and the guide
mark (▲100 or ▲50 depending on the detector tube) on the
hundle.
f) Direct the tube end to the point of measurement and pull out the
handle fully (for 100mL sampling) or halfway (for 50mL sampling)
along the guide line to the lock position.
g) Wait until the sampling time has elapsed. The completion of the
sampling of 100mL or 50mL can be confirmed by the flow finish
indicator on the handle.
How to read the detector tube

(a) The end of the colour change layer flat: Read the value at the
4
end of the layer. In this example, the reading should be 5%.
(b) The end of the colour change layer slanted: Read the value in
4
the middle of the slant. In this exaggerated example, the reading

should be 5%.
4
(c) The demarcation of the colour change layer pale: Read the
4
value in the middle between the dark layer end and the pale
layer end. In this exaggerated example, the reading should
4
be 5%.
△ NOTE
Read instructions for your Gastec detector tube and model GV-
100S carefully.

■ Sulphuryl fluoride measurement system
GASTEC developed the Pyrotec pyrolyzer system to enable precise and easy detection of Sulphuryl fluoride. It converts Sulphuryl fluoride (using a process
known as thermal cracking) into an easily measurable gas.
＊Use Sulphuryl fluoride pyrotube No. 231, Pyrotec pyrolyzer No. 860, and GASTEC gas sampling pump.

■ Automatic Air Sampling Pump GSP-300FT-2
The Model GSP-300FT-2 has been designed small and compact air sampling pump available with an integrated flowmetre for Hand-held, Personal or site
sampling. This small size air sampling pump can be possible to carry on constant flow rate for 10 hours continuous sampling. This air sampling pump employs
an extremely low noise air pump and automatic shut-off air pump by preset timer or volume for integrated flow rate and accumulated time.
■ GSP-300FT-2 Specification

Operating temperature and humidity range Temperature : 0∼40℃ Humidity : 10∼90%RH(without dews)
Power source 2 pcs. Type AA Alkali Dry Cell Battery lasts 10 continuous hours (20℃)
Dimension & weight 80(W)×40(D)×140(H)mm・300g(with batteries)
Approval CE-marking (2004/108/EC )
■ Measuring Procedure
① Break tips off the ② Insert the detector tube to the ③ Put the power switch to ON. Adjust the flow
detector tube by inlet of the rubber tube holder. rate, confirm the timer of the air sumpling
tube tip holder. pump is set, then push the start button.
④ After sampling, remove the detector tube
from the rubber tube holder and read the
concentration of the tube.
＊ Please read carefully the instruction sheet
of the detector tube to be used for timer
and flow rate.
